A school had an election where the candidates received votes in the ratio of 1:2:3. If the winning candidate received 210 votes,
1 answer:
Now, let's say the total of folks voting were "x".
now, if we divide "x" even into "1+2+3" pieces, we'd get some quotient value, the first candidate took 1 of those even pieces, the second candidate took 2 of those even pieces, and the winning candidate took 3 of them, thus winning anyway.
let's do the division, keeping in mind that the winning candidate had 210 votes.

To find which of the following roots is between "8" and "7" we can calculate the root of which numbers result in 8 and 7. To do this we will power them by 2, this is done because power is the oposite operation to the root. Doing this gives us:
So the root of 64 is 8 and the root of 49 is 7. We need to find the number that is between 49 and 64.
From the options the only one that qualifies is 52. The correct option is b.
